Is this the only solution though? I've heard some places like Japan are safe to do this in because of the culture. No idea if that's true but I think it should be teaching men not to rape etc instead of a curfew as a curfew doesn't solve the underlying issue really.

I’m amazed at how many answers I see, where arguments are used which sound politically correct and are only meant to say “it’s good to talk about it in a pc way while the situation just stays like it is”.

It’s obviously satire, it’s so obvious that it hurts because of the flashing neon lights pointing to it.

And since when is satire politically correct?

Mass woosh in this content section.

Men must always take offense at everything. Genuinely cannot comprehend how theyre all so fucking fragile.

The fact we let volatile liabilities like this into high stress roles in society like medicine law enforcement and the military is probably a substantial factor in why everything's on fire right now.

Letting rabidly irrational egotistical children (almost like human brain just not mature when exposed to too much testosterone? It's genuinely like they don't have theory of mind, reading some of this) Make any of the decisions in our society cannot be helpful.

Obviously there are anomalies in every population, but it just seems to be the norm for them. Like some kind of brain damage.

You grow up from day 1 in a constant state of validation and udder lack of challenge... At the threat one either runs in fear and builds brick walls around their Masculinity's glass container or learns how to pop a cork and decant off the caustic layers. The former are just so fucking loud, sensational, and dangerous.

Looking forward to a bunch of men from All coming in here and talking about how offensive this post is

[–] Gladaed@feddit.org 16 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

This is not offensive so much as being completely unreasonable to make a point of how unfair the world is perceived to be. And that's just boring and annoying because it is overused and can be dismissive.

I also don't support executing those narrow e scooter 🛴 thingamajig drivers even though they are a danger to themselves and bikes. Even though it would solve problems.

I don't think anyone thinks men should actually have a curfew. We think that men should stop assaulting women on the street.

[–] Honytawk@feddit.nl 11 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Well, that is not clear in the post.

[–] Gladaed@feddit.org 4 points 1 week ago

Pretty clear to me.

[–] apotheotic@beehaw.org 3 points 1 week ago

I think "place a curfew on 50% of humanity" is a pretty clear "this is not a real thing"

[–] Gladaed@feddit.org 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Just to be overly clear: I didn't think that! I just am bored of overly extreme phrasing that inflict substantial harm on others.

[–] apotheotic@beehaw.org -2 points 1 week ago

Mm, I hear you. There's catharsis in it, I think. And its not really great to tone police a marginalised group (not saying that's what you're doing)

I do, but only because it would be funny.

[–] Honytawk@feddit.nl 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I get where it is coming from, but it is quite sexist.

Would be better if it wasn't needed, but with this you are punishing everyone because of the actions of a few.

As a man who got here from All, I’m not offended at all, more ashamed of my fellow men.

I have a wife and daughter, so I’m perfectly fine with this.

[–] apotheotic@beehaw.org 4 points 1 week ago

All the best to you and your family :)

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago

Man here, while I don't want this, I can absolutely see the point of it in some places, I mean there are countries with women only train cars, which is just fucking embarrassing to men that it is needed.
